Grilled Calamari Salad, Yuzu Vinaigrette tossed in Frisée, Japanese style crispy garlic and Chili oil, shaved radish and grapefruit supremes. The secret to this is to soak the calamari in milk for at least 24 hours 48 hours if possible. The lactic acid will eventually break down the calamari and make it super tender. Try this and get ready for the best calamari you’ve ever had whether it’s fried grilled or whatever it is you do. … #food #foodie #foodporn #instafood #foodstagram

I’m so Excited to finally announce the release of my first official cookbook!!! THE EMBERS & ASH COOKBOOK is now available on Amazon! it’s taken me a couple of years to finally get this out there and I couldn’t be more excited or more happy with the final results. From putting the recipes together to compiling all of the pictures doing all of the editing and formatting stylizing all the way down to finally publishing it myself I’ve done everything from A-to-Z and it’s been so much hard work and I’m just so glad to finally be able to share all of the hard work with you guys. This is definitely been a passion project of mine and I’m so ecstatic for it to be a reality! Thank you everyone for your support. You all are the spark to @embersandash.co 🔥 … #books #reading #food #foodie #instafood

lol I found this hilarious head shot for my first ever publicity shoot! I was about 27 turning 28 and in my first executive chef position in Hollywood. I opened that restaurant from scratch and it was a hell of a ride and definitely a huge learning experience! I had never had media/publications center around myself so it was all such a gas! Obvi this is way too serious lol! Cheers gang thought you’d like the little flashback. #chef #instagood #cheflife #funny #instafood
